   No.. he did not say it exactly as that. I believe he is not arguing that   
   others may not see a 'right' or 'wrong,' to various acts that humans   
   commit... he just doesn't feel he possesses the faculties to cogitate in his   
   own mind if he finds any of those acts 'right' or 'wrong.' Like 'little Bo   
   Peep,' who 'lost her sheep,' his words were "Right and wrong? Yes...   
   I have lost the sense of "right and wrong." " I cannot help but believe   
   that tends to place us lower down the evolutionary scale than where we   
   should rightfully be. A 'step backwards,' rather than a 'step forward,'   
   in the evolutionary process.   
      
   However -- he seems quite willing to claim he KNOWS what is "productive,"   
   "acceptable," "responsible," and "healthy," he just doesn't know if it   
   is "right" to BE "productive," "acceptable," "responsibility," or "healthy."

   Ah ha... that sounds 'unproductive,' and 'unacceptable' to me...   
   and I'd be willing to go out on a limb... and even say it doesn't   
   seem 'right' to me. :-)
